Onion Johnny in Hampstead, London, 2008 Onion Johnnies () are Breton farmers and agricultural labourers who travel on bicycles selling distinctive pink onions door to door in Great Britain, and especially in Wales. They have adapted this nickname for themselves in Breton as ar Johniged or ar Johnniged. Declining since the 1950s to only a few, the Onion Johnny was once very common. With renewed interest since the late 1990s by farmers and the public in small-scale agriculture, their numbers have recently made a small recovery.

Troy attended spring training with the Phillies in 1910, but did not make the club. In May 1910, Sporting Life reported that the "elongated twirler" had been signed with the Johnstown Johnnies of the Tri-State League. However, the Sporting Life reported two weeks later on his release and added: "He had the speed and curves, but lacked control, and acted too much like an amateur on the ball field." After his release by Johnstown, Troy played the remainder of the 1910 season for the McKeesport Tubers of the Ohio–Pennsylvania League.
During this time, at one stage the major shareholder was prominent retailer Solomon Lew. Ultimately, ownership settled in 1985 when the Adelaide Steamship Company controlled David Jones Limited acquired "Johnnies". David Jones continued for some time to operate the John Martin's stores as a separate retail chain, more down market to their David Jones-branded stores. During the mid-1990s, John Martins operated in the face of more aggressive competition, including the continuing rise of discount department stores, and the expansion of local competitor Harris Scarfe (which expanded from its Rundle Mall base into suburban Adelaide locations).

Stage Door Johnnies waiting after A Gaiety Girl The show's popularity depended, in part, on the beautiful "Gaiety Girls" dancing chorus appearing onstage in bathing attire and in the latest fashions. According to The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, "The piece is a mixture of pretty girls, English humor, singing, dancing and bathing machines and dresses of the English fashion. The dancing is a special feature of the performance, English burlesques giving much more attention to that feature of their attractiveness than the American entertainments of the same grade do."The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, 23 December 1894, p.
The place has a strong or special association with a particular community or cultural group in New South Wales for social, cultural or spiritual reasons. Royal Naval House has significant social value especially to the Royal Navy and the Royal Australian Navy. It provided accommodation and meals for thousands of seaman for 82 years, and was known as "Johnnies" after the first superintendent John Shearston. So well known was Royal Naval House that the term "hissing in the snakepit" entered Naval slang to refer to the wet canteen located in the quadrangle at the centre of the building.

The Chicago Cubs decided to give Neuer a tryout, hoping to add some pitching depth to help them, as they were in a pennant race. He did not make the roster, and was sent to the Johnstown Johnnies of the Tri- State League, where he finished the 1908 season. In 1909, he was increasingly referred to with the nickname of "Tacks", a nickname reserved for "restless, uneasy, erratic athletes", due to both his lack of control and his general inconsistency on the mound. That season, he played with many teams, both professional and semi-pro, and was frequently released to his inability to control the ball.
Shearston was the first superintendent of Royal Naval House and it was nicknamed "Johnnies" by sailors after him. Royal Naval House has social significance for thousands of Australian and British seamen who have lodged there in its more than 80 years of existence. As a group, the buildings (Federation Hall, Royal Naval House, Johnson's Building, 231 George Street and Brooklyn Hotel) have considerable significance. All facades contribute to the overall richness of the group, with Royal Naval House the focal point and the Johnson's Building leading nicely around the corner to a "coda" of two small but heavily textured facades which seem to be a logical end to the whole.

When the game later became Mortal Kombat, the Michael Grimm character was retained as a spoof of Van Damme and renamed Johnny Cage, with Van Damme's split-legged groin punch from Bloodsport consequently included as one of Cage's special moves. According to martial artist Daniel Pesina, who portrayed Cage in the original game and the 1993 sequel Mortal Kombat II, the character was additionally modeled after Daniel Rand from the Power Man and Iron Fist comic series. Cage's real name of John Carlton was taken from Midway artist and programmer John Carlton, who worked on the NBA Jam arcade game series. Cage was the first character created for Mortal Kombat, and the test prototype of the original game had just two Johnnies fighting each other.
